About the role
Senior Technical Program Manager responsible for leading one of Parloa’s most strategic cross-organizational programs from definition through launch, delivering enterprise AI platform capabilities with reliability, security and operational excellence.
Responsibilities
- Serve as the accountable leader for one strategic cross-organizational program, or two closely related programs, with clear business impact.
- Build and maintain the integrated execution plan, including milestones, critical path, dependencies and cross-team commitments.
- Drive end-to-end risk management by identifying leading indicators, removing blockers, tracking mitigations and escalating only when executive decisions are required.
- Define and continuously raise the quality bar for your program by establishing objective launch criteria across functionality, reliability, security and operational readiness.
- Lead release readiness across Engineering, Product, Platform, Security, Legal and Commercial teams, ensuring launches are based on measurable readiness rather than feature completion alone.
- Make delivery trade-offs explicit. Where timelines require compromises, ensure decisions are documented, owned by the appropriate stakeholders and supported by clear mitigation plans.
- Drive executive decision-making through concise written narratives, data and clear recommendations, replacing fragmented status reporting with a trusted source of truth.
- Define and monitor delivery metrics that enable objective decisions around scope, schedule, quality and execution risk.
- Build lightweight mechanisms that improve planning, dependency management and execution across teams, leaving the organization stronger after the program completes.
- Influence technical and organizational decisions without direct authority, aligning engineering, product and business stakeholders around shared outcomes.
Qualifications
- 7+ years of Technical Program Management experience, or equivalent experience leading large-scale technical programs with software engineering teams.
- Proven experience delivering complex cross-functional programs from definition through launch across organizations you did not directly manage.
- Experience leading release readiness for production systems, including defining objective launch criteria and driving launch decisions.
- Strong track record of identifying delivery risk early, driving mitigation plans and making effective escalation decisions.
- Sufficient technical depth to engage credibly with senior engineers on architecture, rollout strategies, system dependencies and engineering trade-offs.
- Experience defining program metrics and using data to guide execution and executive decision-making.
- Exceptional written communication skills. You can distill a complex technical situation into a clear one-page narrative for senior leadership.
